I saw this while I was out today. I know the image is a bit small and the text kind of hard to read, but if you look at the bottom, it says, "Skechers joins Niki Taylor and Burney Lamar in support of Mercy Ministries of America".

Mercy Ministries, while not vocally anti gay, is one of those groups that's all about praying the gay away. It's been rumored that they also use exorcism techniques, but I can't find anything credible to back that up.

I will not spend another dime on a pair of Sketchers or any of these brands, which all fall under the Sketchers umbrella:

*Unltd. by Marc Ecko
*Rhino Red
*Zoo York
*310 Premium Footwear
*BEBE Sport
*Punkrose
*Public Royalty
*Marc Nason

Write a letter, tell a friend, boycott the brands, whatever. I'm just putting the info out there.

I promise there will be actual content in my next post...in the mean time...

I'm bored and jumping in on the fad late:

For about five minutes last night, I was really proud to be an American for the first time...ever. CNN announced that Mccain had conceded and I laughed so hard that I almost cried.

And then this morning Prop 8 passed, as well as two other propositions banning gay marriage in other states. I am no longer so much proud as shocked and dismayed.

So, to the 52% of you who believe that rights are contingent on someones sexuality, I say:

Fuck You

It's on now, motherfuckers.

Holy fuckballs, you guys!

I was just wondering

2008-06-01T04:47:04Z

How is it that "shit" and "fuck" and whatnot are all considered too rude for TV, but "faggot" is perfectly acceptable?

Dear Starbuck's Lady,

Look, I know you got here at like 5am and I appreciate wholeheartedly that you are here and I could stroll up and get a chai. Really, honestly I do. That being said...

Who lit the fuse on your tampon? I mean, really. All I said was, "Can I get a medium chai, no water, please?" Never before in the couple years I have been ordering a chai in just that way have I ever received a look that would have been appropriate if I had, say, kicked your dog.

Oh, you don't add water to your chai? Awesome, but you know what, a lot of Starbucks seem to, because this is how a Starbucks employee told me to order my chai if I didn't want a watered down mess.

I realize this is probably not your first choice as far as lines of work go. Believe me, mine isn't either. And yet, here we are. Now for the love of all that is good and fluffy, make me my drink. I have emails to answer.

Kisses!

Me

So, it occured to me that after I finish the book I'm reading, there will only be two books in the house that I have no read. And therefore, I need recommendation.

You people know what I like. It can be fiction, non fiction, doesn't matter. Just recommend something you think I'd like. The more the better.

As stolen from previous journals...

1. pick 15 of your favorite movies.
2. go to imdb and find a quote from each movie.
3. post them here for everyone to guess.
4. fill in the film title once it's guessed.
5. no googling/using imdb search functions to make/confirm your guesses. dont cheat in other words.

1. "I know it's pretty baby, but I didn't take it out for air."

2. "People don't like to be meddled with. We tell them what to do, what to think, don't run, don't walk. We're in their homes and in their heads and we haven't the right. We're meddlesome." Serenity

3. "Well versed in the natural sciences and mathematics. She speaks seven languages proficiently. Were she not a woman one would consider her to be an intellectual."

4. "Everything that you wanted I have done. You asked that the child be taken. I took him. You cowered before me, I was frightening. I have reordered time. I have turned the world upside down, and I have done it all for *you*! I am exhausted from living up to your expectations of me. Isn't that generous?" Labrynth

5. "There he goes. One of God's own prototypes. A high-powered mutant of some kind never even considered for mass production. Too weird to live, and too rare to die."

6. "Y'all beat the hell out of that woman, but you didn't kill her. And I put a bullet in her head, but her heart just kept on beatin'. Now, you saw that yourself with your own beautiful blue eye, did you not? We've done a lot of things to this lady. And if she ever wakes up, we'll do a whole lot more. But one thing we won't do is sneak into her room in the night like a filthy rat and kill her in her sleep. And the reason we won't do that thing is because... that thing would lower us. Don't you agree?" Kill Bill

7. "I'm not addicted to drugs, I'm addicted to glamour."

8. "Aye, but marry who, your grace? Would you give me some suggestion? For some say France and others Spain, and some cannot abide foreigners at all. So I am not sure how best to please you unless I married one of each." Elizabeth

9. "I am a sacred vessel; all you got in your stomach is taco bell."

10. "See the Alligator Boy, ride my famous Murder Ride. Most of all, don't forget to take home some of my tasty fried chicken! Ha ha! It just tastes so damn good!" House of 1000 Corpses

11. "The French are glad to die for love. They delight in fighting duels. But I prefer a man who lives and gives expensive jewels."

I recovered the kitchen chairs today. I've been meaning to do it forever. Originally, I bought the set for my parents as a Christmas present, trying to help my mom get the country French kitchen she wanted. It suited her, me not so much.

I love this fabric so much. It's orange vinyl with bits of glitter and goes so well with our 50's kitchen. Here's a close up that sort of lets you see the awesomeness in all it's glory.

I'm considering taking the seats off again and painting the chairs and table a deep chocolate brown to make it really pop.

Heath Ledger (April 4, 1979 – January 22, 2008)

2008-01-23T04:27:51Z

New York police are investigating whether Australian actor Heath Ledger died of a drug overdose.

A New York Police Department spokesman said the Oscar-nominated actor's body was found naked and face-down on the floor of his bedroom by a housekeeper about 3.30pm Tuesday (7.30am Melbourne time).

There were prescription pills nearby, police said. ''We are investigating the possibility of an overdose,'' police spokesman Paul Browne said. ''There were pills within the vicinity of the bed.''

The police spokesman said the pills were not scattered around Ledger's body, as previously reported. "There were some prescription medications that included sleeping pills," he said.

The 28-year-old actor, who had reportedly been ill with pneumonia, had an appointment for a massage at the apartment, which is believed to be his home in Soho in Manhattan.

The housekeeper went to tell Ledger the masseuse had arrived and found him naked and unconscious at the foot of his bed.

Huh..

2008-01-07T05:23:02Z

So.

Huh.

My mom bought me a purse for Christmas. She and one of my sisters went and picked it out and it's actually a very nice purse. I quite like it.

It's a Louis Vuitton and they bought it from a woman who sells knock off jeans for $35 at Costco. They assumed it was a knock off, too, and the price was right for it to be (I know they didn't pay more than $100, and it was probably even less than that).

The thing is, it's not a fake. It's real. Limited edition Louis Vuitton.

If you can find it, it goes for at least $9,000.

Christ in a pogo stick, where would I even take a purse that costs as much as 6 months rent?

This entry is about a week overdue. While Vegas was awesome and very much needed, I managed to come down with a nasty bug in the last night we were there. Jeromie got it a couple days after we got home, and it's one of those bugs that just hangs on, ya know? We're both ok at this point, except for a lingering cough and the need to sleep all day and night.

But this too shall pass.

So Vegas. It was pretty sweet.

We got to the airport about three hours early to avoid all the kuffuffle of traveling during the holidays. It was a good choice. No one in line at the ticket counter or security, so we got through fast and went for a couple beers. This was a good thing, not only because beer is good and tasty, but because it gave us a couple good hours to really reconnect and talk like we don't usually get to, what with school and work. It was like a date at the airport, surrounded on all sides by human tragedy. How can you not go away feeling better?

The MGM lets your check in at the airport now, which is a good idea in theory. In theory, you check in, get your tickets and avoid the whole line once you get to the hotel, which we would have done, if they hadn't given us the keys to an occupied room. It went something like, "Oh, someone left their toiletries...Oh...someone left their pants...Oh." So there was a little line standing while we got keys to a room that wasn't occupied. Still, much less line standing than I would have thought.

Food was procurred, there was some people watching and then much sleep. Really, there was quite a lot of sleep the whole trip, about 12 hours per night, which is always a good thing.

So the next night we saw O, which was amazing and our seats were fantastic (which they should have been for the price and booking almost 3 months in advance). Dinner at some little French place in Paris, watched the fountain show, sleep. It was a good night.

Through the rest of the trip we saw Sweeny Todd (which is totally worth seeing), got pampered at the Bellagio spa, got last minute tickets to Stomp and I got to try on a $5000 floor length leather and black fox coat, all of which can be filed under the tab of being a Good Thing. I even got my SuperHappyLuckyTacoClutch back after I left it for almost two hours at one of the machines!

That alone should prove just how lucky it is.

The fact that it contained no money or...anything at all probably didn't hurt, though.

Also, the conservatory at the Bellagio had penguins!

So, even coming home sick, it was a good trip. We came home to find the cats and rats well cared for, and happy to see us.

So yeah, good trip.

And now, more work.

Done!

2007-12-21T07:31:39Z

I am done. At least for the semester. Final grades:

Intermediate Figure Drawing...B
Introductory Anatomy...B

I'm happy.

And tomorrow we're taking off for Vegas for a week. Tickets for "O", a little Christmas surprise lined up...It's going to be good.

I so need this break.
